Maybe we can just keep this thread for our all night parties!!! :bounce:


The hot flashes have taken over my sleep!!! I get next to no sleep again because of them!! I am tired all the time too!! I can't just lay in bed when I wake up..because it takes me so long to go back to sleep, and the longer I lay there, the worse I ache!!!
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I say just get up and PARRRRRTAAAAY!!! :laugh:


I know Phylis is out there too...most nights she is up as well!!! WHO ELSE IS UP WITH US!!!!???

I'm here - but it's the middle of my morning. Brats are at school, kitchen is clean(ish) so I can play.

I do feel for you, Nana, no hot flushes for me, but a snuffly 7 yr old with a hacking cough kept me up last night, so I'm not feeling on top form either.

Do you find you get really productive in the wee small hours when you succumb to the lure of the computer? I do, but I also know it's the kiss of death to any chance of getting back to sleep as my mind wakes up fully and I'm off, emailing, reading forums and occasionally scrapping.

Hi, NANA!!! i've been up for a while, but i just checked in here. it's 4:55 now. i've been up since about 3:30.... my party is consisting of some almond flour raspberry crumble and iced green tea. not much fun. i was so tired yesterday from having been up so early the night before that i went to bed at 9. i should have known better. so now i have to deal with being up so early again and will probably get sleepy early again. and round and round we go. well, at least it isn't hot flashes keeping me awake. there's that, at least.

Selena, hope your poor little one gets to feeling better. having a sick kiddo is worse than anything, i always thought. it involves tiredness AND worry.

i never get anything done, being up at all hours. since Hubby is still sleeping, i don't want to make a racket. i AM looking forward to trying out my new toy today. i bought a MINT floor cleaner and it arrived yesterday. it's charging at the moment, and i'm going to turn it loose on my wood and tile surfaces as soon as The Husband leaves for work. hopefully it'll work well.

ok. well. here i am. it's 5 a.m. gotta think of something useful to do.

see you tomorrw at some unGodly hour, Nana!

Well good morning to you both!!

Selena....yes....I do a lot of scrapping....this month has been really bad for me....and I have scrapped nearly 40 pages this month!! :eek: I used to that before the "littles" came to live with me...but I haven't scrapped that many pages in one month in at least 18 months....I am lucky to get 15-20... But like you...once awake and start playing....no getting back to sleep....


Phylis....I knew you would be up!! I beat you by 2 hours...I have been up since 1:30...I went to bed at 10... and I don't do anything in the house this early...only the computer...maybe TV..but not usually...sometimes, I just sit in the dark and watch the moon and stars from the front window...so peaceful....thinking time.

I am using my phone for an alarm this week and a friend txt me at 3:30am- she was up- arghh and I was set to sleep for a solid 6-7 hours- oh well- up now- class starts at 9 compared to work at 8:30 so I am letting myself sleep in one half hour!

40 pages, you are productive Linda.
I wouldn't dare to put the computer on when I cannot sleep I'd never go back to bed that way.

I tend to get up, take a glass of hot milk, read some more and go back to bed at 4 o'clock or so. No ill kids here to keep me awake, just a snoring hubby and dog! or restless legs .

Laurie what a friend to text you in the middle of the night, I'd throttle her unless it was an emergency. Come and live here, no reception , no mobile phonecalls :whistle:

Oh my poor sweet insomnia friends.....
I have been up since 4, fell back asleep about 15 minutes before my alarm went off at five. Sad to say that is the best night's sleep out of all of you :(

here is to a better night tonight *cheers*

Just wanted to say Hi!!! It's 3:!5 a.m. here and I can't sleep. I thought if I got up for a bit, I would relax and then I could get back in bed before the 5:50 alarm! Think it will work?

Mochas!! Yum yum!

I was up between 1- and 2 am, but the worst of it is when I woke up at 4 (again!!) and fell back asleep 15 minutes before the alarm when off- woke me up out of a dream and wow that is so disorienting.

Scott stopped using his tablet and I am going to see if I can borrow it for a while. Maybe I should bring it to bed with me too so I can party with all of you :D

Sounds like more lattes are necessary. I know I've already had my fill. Ready to make a ginormous something. So sleepy. I have no problems sleeping I just don't get to. Can't wait to sleep in tomorrow.
